  • A hollow, mold-made pottery kneeling couple, with a realistic and detailed painted face, wearing a robe and a hat for the male and the hair in a tail of the female, with arms outstretched. The hands are missing but not broken off, they were most likely made as a separate piece (maybe wood) attached to whatever he was once holding, perhaps a musical instrument (musicians are common tomb figures). The figure is painted with white, black and red. The female has some nice decorations on the robe still shown. Statues also have some calcified roots.
